Melds:
There are two kinds of melds:
A set consists if 3 or more cards of the same rank.
A run consists of 3 or more consecutive cards of the same suit.
Deadwood: Unmatched cards.
The play:
A turn begins by drawing a card from the top of the stock pile (face down) or discard pile (face up) and adding it to player's hand. The player may rearrange the cards in his hand forming melds and planning his strategy. To complete the turn, the player must discard a single card onto the discard pile.
Gin: The play ends when a player wins by drawing from the stock or discards pile, melding all but one of their cards and discarding their last card all at once.
Knock: A player may "knock" instead of going for gin, as long as his hand's deadwood count does not exceed 10 points.
Laying off: As soon as one of the players has knocked, all of the other players may add matching cards to his original melds. This way the other players can reduce their deadwood point-count. Adding the cards at this point is called "Laying Off".
Undercut: If the deadwood count of a non-knocker is lower or equals the deadwood count of the Knocker, the non-knocker wins the round. This is called an undercut.

Reuse of Jokers:
+ If a set of three cards contains a Joker, the Joker may be released in exchange for equal ranking cards of both missing suits.

+ If a run contains a Joker, a player holding the card the Joker represents may replace it and reuse it elsewhere.
